Hi guys. I would like to know how to get into computer programing.
May I join your discussion?


Programming is telling a computer what to do in more or less
excruciating detail.
"Low level" languages, like C or C++, frequently require you to do a
lot of work to perform a task that's simple to state.

By the time you've stated it in sufficiently explicit and unambiguous
detail that even a stupid computer can understand it, it generally
turns out to be not that simple to state after all.
